Abu Hanin

Abu Hanin was a Syrian Ba'ath Party propagandist during the Syrian Civil War. In early 2018, he was interviewed by Vice News correspondent Isobel Yeung in Damascus about his spreading Ba'athist propaganda, and she acted somewhat belligerently towards the Ba'athists, leading to Abu Hanin criticizing the Western perception of Bashar al-Assad; Abu Hanin claimed that Bashar's father Hafez al-Assad raised lions.
